White halibut & wild garlic - that fits
April 15th, 2018 | main dishes
The best thing when buying fish is always to be guided by the display at the fishmonger or on the fish market. We are happy to follow the special recommendations of our fishmonger, and then we are sure to have the best and freshest fish in the pan. But what do you do with the newly purchased fish? At this time of year, a wild garlic and white wine sauce is just the thing!

And this is how the wife of the captain does it
The wild garlic white wine sauce also goes very well with asparagus, then I take the asparagus stock to deglaze the sauce. As a side dish “Bamberger Hörnchen”, an old potato variety, cooked in the shell, are optimal. Lucky who gets this potato variety on his market.
And, by the way, best of all, the sauce goes with fish AND asparagus AND Bamberg potatoes 😉

Would. Would have. Subjunctive. Nothing is normal in these Corona times. The ships are not sailing, they have been on anchorage for months. Well, if we can’t go to Venice, we’ll do the cicchetti at home.

The Christmas Stollen Project
Christmas Stollen never played a role in my childhood. We rather preferred Hamburg brown cookies or spekulatius for our Christmas baking. Anyway, without Christmas Stollen Christmas in some places of Germany is not even imaginable…That’s the reason, why I found it always exciting. A heavy yeast dough with candied fruit, raisins and a dash of good rum. The Stollen must traverse several weeks (minimum two weeks) before you eat it – if you do manage to defend it against the family. Attention: This weekend is your last chance to bake a Stollen, which can be served “well matured” at Christmas on your coffee table. Otherwise, you must wait another year…
